Public meeting Thurs 26th Nov 7.30 -9pm Friends’ Meeting Hse, St GilesPublic meeting

The much-heralded meeting about LTP3 – the Local Transport Plan.

LTP3 determines what money the County Council will get from DfT for local transport improvements as far ahead as 2030. For some time, the council’s budget for cycling has been a sorry £0 (zero). This is therefore THE opportunity to make a difference to cycling in and around Oxford by making sure that in LTP3, the County Council asks for funding for LOTS of cycling projects.

We need to persuade the County Council to commit to proper investment in cycling and we need YOUR input to make it happen. What do you want to see done for cycling in the next 20 years?

At this meeting we will briefly present the background to LTP3 and some proposals we think are worthy of attention. Then we will break into small groups to brainstorm what each person thinks is important. YOUR cycling wishlist will form a part of Cyclox’s demands to the County Council. It is also an opportunity to meet other Cyclox members and some may adjourn to the Eagle and Child afterwards.
